College Pick Up Game Plan

Don't act like your situation is special. It was no different at my school. There would be 4-person tables with 1 person sitting at each table, while other people wandered around "searching for somewhere to sit" because they were too scared to make a new friend.

When you first sit down they might seem a bit suspicious/nervous, or they might ignore you. Just start talking. If you act like it's the most normal thing in the world, they will loosen up real quick.

Actually, despite my ridiculously low close rate my freshman year, I ended up with tons of 'friends' (aka pivots and social proof wherever I go). I learned to open complete strangers like a machine, and then I eventually learned from a natural things such as "don't ask a woman questions, just tell her" and peacocking, and eventually I found the community and learned KINO, strong EC, being Alpha, etc.

Read the layguide and the archives at bristol lair for the cleanest, most efficient source of info... I'm going back to the basics to get the groundwork done myself. Thinking so much about all that 'advanced' stuff on mASF has been fucking with my game.

and finally...

Rule #76: No excuses. Play like a champion!

Basically, freshman year at University is basically a clean slate. It allows you to choose what you want to be. This is what I've found out in the first month and a half or so.

Two crazy tactics that work, get a friend that you talk to regularly in every res, therefore, you always know what party's are going on, who's there and you always have social proof at the cafe. The other is use wikipedia to find out a little about just about everything, so you can ask someone intelligently about what they are studying in an earnest attempt to learn more.

And as for the line about coffee and class, yeah it works. I used it last week

Here what I would say with my experience in college (still here) Just meet and get in good with lots of people. You can almost PU guys. You meet a guy and meet up with the girls he knows. Also hang around anywhere there is alcohol. When girls get drink in their system, their panties come off. Really, though. Really, have lots of guy friends because all guys know some girls. If they're lame they do the work for you.

Yeah, it's helpful to become friends with the guys. If they don't have any hot female friends, you can still go out and sarge together. One of my buddies invited me to a keg party for next saturday, and there will likely be some nice hotties there.

It's also much easier to get in with girls if you get introduced by a mutual friend. They become much more receptive and let their guards down easier than when you approach as a stranger.

One thing I like for drunk girls (but I only have one friend with the balls to do this) is to have your buddy introduce you. I did that last weekend and the group was easy to talk to.

What I suggest with this though (in the case where your buddy doesn't know the people either) is that he introduces you and then makes a quit exit before people realize that no one in the group knows him. If he sticks around, they can figure out that no one knows who he is.

If he takes off, it would be rude for them to ask each other how they know your buddy. The group just assumes that someone knows him and accepts you as a mutual friend. If they ever figure it out though, it's alright. As long as you play solid game, they won't care.
